Too many LEs

[JonathanKing01]

I'm having trouble compiling the quartus project from the make file, so I tried opening it in the Quartus studio and running it there. Its generating 402239 registers, which seems close to the number generated in the tech report for the implementation using Logic Elements without Tailored Multipliers, and is too many to fit onto a Cyclone IV. Does compiling the project from the make file rather than from the Quartus studio fix this somehow, or is this unintended?

Might not be an issue, but thanks for any help.
